Synthetic opioids, such as illicit fentanyl, continue to claim far too many lives in the United States and represent a growing global threat. We will continue to take action like sanctioning fentanyl traffickers to disrupt and dismantle illicit drug trafficking.

Wonderful to engage with a diverse group of emerging Israeli leaders at the FeelBeit cultural center in Jerusalem. I applaud their efforts to bring people together; their leadership—and that of their colleagues—is a key element of Israel’s democracy.

I met with Opposition Leader @yairlapid today. I underscored the ironclad U.S.-Israel relationship, our commitment to Israeli democracy & security, & further regional integration. We discussed the two-state solution & the urgent need to de-escalate the situation in the West Bank.
